Perfect for a family

8/10

This was a family snow holiday (all young adults) and our first overseas. Although the accommodation was not on the slopes it was in close proximity to the Hakuba fields with Happo One being the closest (About 5 minutes by Bus or a 10 minute walk). The Hakuba shuttle services picked up from basically the front door and the Gakuto guest bus filled in the blanks. Some restaurants, a pub plus Snow Gear Sales and Hire (Rythmn) shop accessed by a short (2 minute walk through the snow) just added to the ambience.

10/10

We had a lovely time. No complaints we can think of! The villa was perfect for a family of 4. The underfloor heating was a nice luxurious touch. The staff was amazing and super accommodating. Shout outs to Sae and Yuki especially. We would definitely book Gakuto Villas again.

10/10

We loved every minute! Great location close to fantastic restaurants and the ski shuttle buses stop right out front. Very modern villas and staff were very helpful and friendly.

10/10

We really enjoyed our stay here. The Villa is very spacious and clean. It's also centrally located. The only thing I wish for is that they would give us more towels. When I found a burnt pot, and told the receptionist, they replaced it right away with a new one. I would definitely recommend my friends to stay here.

子供も社会人となり５年ぶりの家族全員の旅行でした。ホテルは効率的ではないので一軒家を借り切った形のこのヴィラスはとても良かった。バストイレが二つあり清潔でした。周囲のロケーションも良く軽井沢のようでした。ただ、冬季だけ運営するレストランが多く夏はディナーの予約を早めにしないと彷徨うことになります。長女が誕生日でしたので八方タウンの素敵なケーキ屋さんでケーキを買い、駅近くのイオンで花火を買って楽しく過ごしました。

In beautiful Hakuba, Gakuto Villas is a gem! Spotless, modern two story villa. All the amenities of home in really cool facilities. Totally hi-tech: wifi included, floor ambient heaters (although we didn't need them in August), bathrooms were tricked out! Downstairs was like a Japanese bath with shower and soaking tube in a room separated by toilet with a sliding (Waterproof) door. Upstairs bath was equally cool. Modern toilets, of course. Hakuba is so charming and the more we explored, the more we liked it. Though our host Kayo warned us that many restaurants were closed, we found some good eating. Wondering why it's not a more popular summer destination it's so beautiful.

7月に2泊しました。部屋はとにかく綺麗で隅々まで清潔感にあふれていました。3歳の息子は大喜びで階段や部屋を走りまわりはしゃいでいました。 料理に必要なものも揃っており、快適に過ごすことができました。 近くには温泉やスーパー、おいしいお蕎麦やハンバーガーのお店、こどもがちょっと遊ぶのに良い小川などもあり、1週間くらいのんびり滞在したかったです。また必ず行きたいと思わせてくれる数少ない宿の一つでした！

Had a very enjoyable stay at Gakuto Villas. Very comfortable villa for a family of four. Thanks to the team at Gakuto for helping us collect ski gear, take us to supermarket and drop off and collect from skiing every day due to buses no running at end of season.

Exactly as per the photos. We had a great stay, just outside happo main centre with busses to all ski locations and a few really good restaurants nearby.

We stayed at villa 11 for 6 days and had a great time. The villa has all we need to be comfortable.

The villa is a great place for family. We actually cooked while enjoying the scenery of the winter. Facilities are excellent and services from the villa staff Mr Nathan is great. Thank you Mr Nathan. As we own a whole unit and just right outside the villa is a great space for some family activities n playing with snow too. We had a great time in just this 2 night stay.

一戸建て感覚のホテル。マンション住まいの子供には、２階建てで大喜びでは？室内もとてもきれいで、広々している。設備も、床暖房、お風呂も１階と２階に。食器やガス台、レンジ、ポット、冷蔵庫、等十分な環境。周囲には、長野オリンピックジャンプ台や、白馬八方ゴンドラ、などが、近くにあり、ローソンもある。車で１０分もかからないところにマックスバリューというスーパーもある。あえて、難点を言わせてもらえれば、採光を大きく取っているため、景色や明るさとしては満点だが、着替えするときに困る。ある意味、外から丸見え状態、と同じなので、唯一の個室、トイレで着替えるしかない。もちろん、ブラインドはあるが、夜、室内に電気を灯せば、外からは丸見えなのには変わりない。そこだけが、難でした。それ以外は、充分な宿だったと思います。

10/10

息子家族と一緒に宿泊しましたが、寝室は２つバスルームも２つと快適でした。 白馬の中心地にあり、外食にも便利でした。

10/10

酷暑の東京を離れ、5日間ほど過ごしました。ここを拠点に毎日トレッキングと川遊び。リフレッシュできました！

10/10

又、別の機会に是非利用させていただきたいと思います。

新築の木の香りがするコテージで子供たちは入った瞬間走り回っていました。 家具や時計などの小物もすごくおしゃれでした。 床暖房が廊下やお風呂の床にも入っていたので、暖かくて心地よかったです。 温泉もスーパー・コンビニも近くにあるので、朝食やお酒・お菓子などの買い出しもすぐ行けました。 バーベキューをできる施設があれば、なおよかったのかなと思います

8/10

都心から車で4時間の白馬はダイナミックな夏の景色も素敵で、居心地の良いヴィラは清潔で空間が広いっていうのもホテルにないポイントでした。是非、冬も行きたい。
